CHINESE WHISPERSTo every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven (Proverbs 3:1)

My name is Patricia Joan Brooks. I was born on April 14, 1961, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. My parents were a 41-year old divorced woman and a married man from British Columbia. My mother worked as a cook in a camp. My birth records do not provide my father's age. My biological mother gave me up at birth, and I have never met her or looked for my biological parents. My birth name was Patricia Anne Smith. I have four biological siblings. My mother had previously given another child up for adoption in 1958.

I was not born into the 2x2 Church, but I did end up there. My adoptive parents were members of the 2x2 Church. Overseer Jack Price frowned on adoption and said that it was not allowed in the church. However, my father took exception to that rule. He had some defiance issues that I also have. Thanks Dad. So they forged ahead with two adoptions. Their first adopted child was a boy, born on November 21, 1958. I was adopted in 1961 by the best parents I could ever ask for. For their privacy, I will not provide names for immediate family members. You can draw the lines.

So that’s how I came to be raised in the sect called by some the 2x2 church. My brother and I were both blessed and cursed. As soon as we could read, we were told that we were adopted. That is actually very tough, knowing that we were not wanted by our biological parents. However, we no longer question why we were given away or search for our siblings. We have an awesome love line.

It seems the universe had a different plan for me. I had no sense of belonging. I was different and spoke with a lisp, adding to my issues. Sometimes I awake in the night because I am still not sure who I am and where I belong. In no way did my adoptive Mom and Dad cause that. We are grateful for our parents. We had a large family on Mom’s side. One of my relatives, Charlie Ross, was a worker from overseas. He left the work in Canada at some point and married. I have the last picture taken of him and his wife.

In 2016, in Calgary, Alberta, I was sexually assaulted on the way to the c-train after a denture appointment. I went missing. I vanished. My two daughters knew something was wrong when I didn't return from my appointment, had not intended to go elsewhere, and was not with my mom. After eight hours of not being able to reach me, they alerted the Calgary Police. A Calgary Transit Operator found my purse with my Transit Operator ID and my phone. He answered the phone when my daughter called. To this day, I have no recollection of what happened.

This trauma released all the previous abuse I had suffered. Pandora’s Box was opened. In many ways, I was broken. I took 90 Valium and 50 Percocet to escape the pain of my past, but wasn’t successful

2019 -2020 +years maybeSo why am I writing this , my life , my truth , my journey ? I was sexually abused in the 2X2 Church by worker’s and 2X2’s before age 14 .

My motivation and intentions is to hold accountable who used , abused , and laughed at me because I had a lisp , was a tomboy and had ISSUES.Some of the issues assigned to me , by the friends and the Way . Fetal alcohol syndrome , hyperactivity , defiant , non-conforming child , no boundaries , hard to confine , a willful child etc. My issues took me on a terrifying journey . Without knowing the medical history of my biological parents .I cannot to this day identify or comprehend the health issues I have .Now I am taking a stand to call out the worker’s and other perpetrators . So I can regain my life without having to be medicated 24/7 . Also to save others from abuse at the Truths hands . As it has not stopped . To everything there is a season and a time ‘’(Prob.3-1) . This is my moment , my time to reveal the truth of the abuse that was heaped upon me . To those who had suspected that I had been sexually abused , you were right . Thanks to those lovely souls who have chimed in already . My universe is great .I don’t fear death as I have been face to face with a murderer .

Stay tuned ! There will be many Chinese Whispers offered in the long days to come .

I am now the hunter . I have taken back my power at 59 years old . You will pay on judgement day !!!! As will I .

If you break the sound of silence regarding the WAY YOU PAY I am trembling , nauseous and pacing as I prepare to bring this to light , and break the silence again . The police and other authorities are aware .I was excommunicated in 1976 in January , I was 14 years old and excommunicated for doing that . Breaking the silence . My father banished Jack Price from our home . Yes Jack Price, the revered , esteemed , with a God like complex . My grandma Thora Grigg , the sister of Charlie Ross (early worker) , never spoke to Jack Price again . She banned him as well . I moved out at age 14 just before I turned 15 , for the first time . I claimed my freedom , but at a steep price . I have tried to take my life many many times . The cut marks on my arms remain , I pick my feet till they bleed 🩸 , welfare checks are done weekly , unfortunately I remain on benzodiazepines . All the trauma and medication has robbed me of my short-term memory . The psychologist neurologist actually did extensive testing . One session was 4.5 hours . The trail of abuse lingers . I have two beautiful girls that were abused as well . We have paid mightily for the offenders deeds . My girls all got THE ISSUES . But we roll on as best we can ! To the elderly beautiful ladies that still wrap your arms around me and never turn me away , thank you for still protecting and loving me !You know who you are . Just ask the universe for what you need . Whisper in the wind 🌬 the universe hears 😊

1chinesewhispers welcome to the board and wow, what a story you have to tell. My heart goes out to you. You said you broke the silence. Does that mean you have reported the workers and friends that abused you to the police? Is that why you were excommunicated at 14? We have many stories here and it's so sad to see them all. Part of this forum has a Wings site. It is for those who were abused to tell their story. You might want to go there and read or maybe not. Just wanted you to know of it's existence. Hugs.

In the end there will only be three things that matter. How much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of the things not meant for you. The BuddhaMorality comes not from a book, or a guy up in the sky, but from the idea that how you treat people matters, because how people feel matters. Unknown.

Yes we did . My dad took me to Police and called Jack .He came over and first told my brother he couldn’t take part for 6 months for some of his deeds . My dad had told Jack Price what had happened . Shortly after them talking Jack Price said I had asked for it . He stated I was not raped .13 years old , 19 year old man . Yep at 13 I had asked him to .

Post by 1chinesewhispers on Feb 9, 2020 18:56:28 GMT -5

Like really ! My life was busy with sports, I was a baby still .I had no idea what was happening . You don’t speak of sex as a 2X2 . Just shuffle it under the mat .When I spoke of my girls , at this moment my youngest daughter has just been moved from the psychiatric ward to a treatment centre . I have a cousin chilling in rehab in British Columbia . Wide spread and don’t break the silence .Generations . I am writing a book , but at this point I have to stay silent legally .

It is truly unfortunate how the workers respond to CSA. Rape is bad enough, never mind having it negated. I am glad it was reported though it doesn't sound like much was done about it.

Yep, you are right. My daughter opted for Shop along with the boys instead of Home Ec. like I had too take in High School.

After all, -back then what were women only good for?MAKING a "home!"

At the same time they didn't teach us anything about MAKING babies!God forbid! Sex education in schools!

Never heal, forever broken.😢...not forever...Revelation 22:2 KJVIn the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. ... that's in Heaven. There's supposed to be healing here but I wonder if God knows that because it wouldn't be here anymore, He had to provide it on the other side.

Post by 1chinesewhispers on Feb 16, 2020 19:08:47 GMT -5

Again answered by quotes from the bible . I will disagree on never heal / forever broken . The human body can only handle so much . Then the psychological trauma does break the brain . It literally divides your mind . It doesn’t work right again . When your emotions are stripped raw , you are laying on the soft couch because your body still aches and you don’t have the strength to sit up , when you cannot compile the strength to bring yourself out of the house , because of fear even 30 - 50 years later . You are not healed . You and the memory of the abuse keeps you locked inside your brain . It doesn’t leave . You have triggers , something in front of you may happen that takes you right back to the assault . I know because I had assessments done . By doctors , psychologists/neurologist s tested my brain sometimes for up to 5 hours and if you can’t complete a simple task which you knew all your life . You have the fractured mind of the Truth . I was crushed when I was told I function less than a child does sometimes , you are truly broken . There is no cure for abuse .

When you are subjected to a radioactive screening of a brain , the neurologist sees how your brain has changed . Where spots of your has died . The you will also find and be told you have brain damage forever . As Nathan said , sadly the brain cannot be fixed . When you are diagnosed with dementia/per Alzheimer’s at age 53 there is no going back . I have no short term memory . My mind split . To handle the trauma of my abuse . It cannot be fixed .

I was very fortunate in that in my freshman year (9th grade) all students were required to take one quarter (9 weeks) each of "shop" (wood working, drafting, mechanics); home economics (cooking, sewing); art (pottery, painting, sculpture) and music (singing, composing).

Once again I am seeking answers . I have read the CSA set out by worker’s . Once again there is wiggle room . It states that if under the age of 18 it must be reported .,That needs to be a changed . There are many who may be left with no help . It does not supply a safety net for people over 18 who let’s say are given a diagnosis of mental illness such as autism , and don’t have the ability to speak , emotionally handicapped from birth . They remain child like in their mind They were born that way ! How many CSA’S were present , were they allowed to speak ? Were there psychiatric doctors or psychologist there when it was written ? Was a lawyer present ?

Simple questions !

Maybe today someone can answer me today !!Seeking always seeking !

well to be technical CSA means child sexual assault/abuse that would mean anyone under 18...if your over 18 that would be handled as a rape/abuse for adults...

Again I ask .Technically yes , humanly no . I am well aware of the over 18 rule . However if a 19 year old on the spectrum of autism is a child . They will be treated as a child , because they don’t have the ability to speak as a adult .

Asking again 1 Were there CSA victims in the room while the new CSA WAS WRITTEN . 2 were police and lawyers present ?3 were psychiatrists and psychologists and support worker’s for the victim’s present ? Did they get to weigh in ? 4 did victims get a chance to talk if they had the courage ?5 did the worker’s back the decision with prayer or just wing it ? Who was in that room ? I wasn’t , were you ?

If the workers had KNOWN about brain damage on many of the CSA victims then this is a VERY serious matters NOTHING to sweep under the carpet like they did in the past. IGNORANCE is BLISSED, we tried to warn them back in the year 2000.

If they had enforced CSA laws within the 2x2s, you would NOT have suffered these things today! For your peace of mind, pray like Jesus did, "Father, forgive them for the KNOW not what they do!" Please, continue to speak out against CSA. Let us band together and get rid off CSA from our society! around the world.

Oh Nathan I have forgiven . Had I not as a human forgiven , I would probably be dead . My body doesn’t forget , my mind doesn’t forget .

IMO , I don’t condone violence this maybe can explain . My thoughts . If you are walking and confronted by a person who wants your wallet or purse or the contents and has a weapon . Holding the bible over your heart will not save you .Always have a backup plan in the WORLD which is not so friendly anymore . Yes Nathan it should have been corrected . I was born in 1961 , but I remember the abuse at age 2 . It had already started . I couldn’t verbally tell my dad . But when I was lifted onto certain knees I would scream and my dad would pick me up to the safety of his arms . He didn’t know what was happening . So 57 years later I am still broken !

Band together as humans . I will not allow abuse happen to my great granddaughter . So I am speaking and seeking ! 3 generations of abuse in my family is enough .

Once again anyone on here who has suffererd abuse in Canada in awhile there will be a number and link to tell your story to police without your name having to appear . Then it is entered into CPIC . It is shared into the USA 🇺🇸 . From there it goes to the ICE team and is shared everywhere in the world . Abuse is not committed to 2X2’s only .I get it , so I have chosen this journey . Every line on a persons face has a reason !! If you are a offender be careful YOU ARE BEING WATCHED . Especially when workers cross the border to be hidden .It has not stopped people !

We are not alone , there are many fractured minds . Speak if you are suspicious ! No harm no foul , the game of life continues .
